StayWell Holdings has revealed its first Prince Akatoki branded property in Southeast Asia will open in Bangkok later this year.
The Prince Akatoki Riverside will be the third property under the brand, joining sister-hotels in London and the yet-to-open Prince Akatoki Guangzhou.
Scheduled to open in fourth quarter of 2021, The Prince Akatoki Riverside will debut in the heart of Bangkok.
The Prince Akatoki London opened in late 2019 and has received multiple awards and coveted accolades including a Forbes Travel Guide four-star rating and luxury verification in their Annual Travel Guide; Winner, Luxury Lifestyle Awards.
The Prince Akatoki offers guests the level of hospitality and attention to detail that Japanese hospitality is renowned for. The Bangkok property will be an urban sanctuary on the banks of the Chao Phraya River. The hotel will offer guests a break from the hustle and bustle of the city with signature experiences, authentic touches, and an unrivalled hotel experience.
The 255-room property will feature three floors of Club Rooms with Executive Lounge, and a Presidential Suite.
A private pier allows water arrival, and will also offer an exclusive ferry service to the Icon Siam, one of Asia’s largest malls located directly opposite the hotel. The plans include a rooftop sky bar, speciality Thai-Japanese fusion restaurant, whisky bar Malt Lounge and Bar, a lower rooftop deck mezzanine, and a pool bar that includes a garden terrace.
Simon Wan, President and Director of StayWell Holdings Pty Ltd, said that the group’s expansion into Thailand not only cements their commitment to the Asia region, but also demonstrates the industry’s ability to forge ahead despite times of crisis.
“We are thrilled to continue our work towards opening Thailand’s first The Prince Akatoki hotel,” he said. “The current climate has been devastating for our industry, so it is with great pride and great commitment that we continue to move ahead with this project as well as continuing our broad expansion program of The Prince Akatoki brand in global gateway cities.”
